I hear ya.

I quit a very well paying job and went back for my PhD. Eight years of basically no income later, I graduated.

Considering that, on top of that, no one on my committee thought that was I was attempting was even possible... well... yeah, it was a bit of a risk.

On top of that, I had my entire family telling me for most of those 8 years that I was an idiot, which really helped a lot. Truly. :P
